Friday Favorites

Hello Friday!

Hello FAVORITES!

I saw this picture the other day on Facebook and it made for my FAVORITE “LOL” this week because it’s so true. And it kind of reminds me of my post from yesterday where I said to bring your pillow and blanket to school with you 😉

My FAVORITE way to chew gum…by the half stick. I never thought it was weird because growing up my dad would only give us a half stick of his gum at a time. Because he didn’t want to waste it, RUDE. But then I just got used to it and began chewing my gum that way. #ownit

My FAVORITE group text moment…is actually from a couple weeks ago. This one is self-explanatory.

Mom acting like she knows what she’s doing. Haha!

My FAVORITE song changes all the time. Right now, this is it. On repeat. All the time. Also, listen to it before you hit the gym because warning: It will pump you up!!!!

 Check it out here if you’re too lazy to go to YouTube!

I didn’t really know if I liked it at first. So if that’s you right now, give it a second chance another time, okay? Okay!

Snap Kitchen is my FAVORITE. I first heard about it from my co-worker because she was talking about this place she goes that has healthy food and a lot of food allergy friendly items. I heard food allergy friendly and was like I’M IN. So i’ve been going here since this past summer. If you have one, you should try it. They company has a dietician who has approved everything in the story and they offer such great products.

I only get a couple of meals at a time because they will go bad (they’re natural foods so they go bad quick) and i’ll usually pack this in my cooler for lunch/dinner/snacks throughout my school day. Also, if you like black coffee try the almon-ccino and the black coffee! It was my first time to get the juice drink and that milkshake and when I tried them they were pretty good.

Bubble baths are my FAVORITE way to relax. Honestly, I did not like baths growing up. I was always a shower person. I never understood why someone would want to sit in their own dirt…but now I do take baths. #neversaynever Give me my eucalyptus spearmint aromatherapy bubble bath soap, a bath and body works candle, and a book and I found my FAVORITE way to relax. But only in the winter! And only after i’ve already showered, is that weird? Yeah that’s weird. Oh well. #ownit

So 40 degrees and below is FREEZING around here. My body is used to the Texas heat. After my night class the other day, I was so thankful for the seat heaters  in my mom’s car. Seat heaters are my FAVORITE during the winter months. And sometimes I use it when it’s not freezing because I feel like it relaxes my muscles. Do you think that’s a thing??

Andddd that’s my random assortment of FAVORITE things this week. Hope y’all have the best weekend!

Creepin’ on my Phone + Stella & Dot

We all know that when we first visit someone’s blog we usually click the “About Me” button. We want to know about this person. When we know about this person we have a better understanding of their personality, their goals, their blog, their life, etc. And sometimes we’re just straight up nosy. I know I am. I like to know things and I like to know about other people. I like to “creep” on people…in a normal way, not a stalker way hahah! SO, that being said I thought i’d let ya creep on my most prized and personal possession. My phone!

When I thought about this it was obviously 11:10 yesterday morning, so I went and found my phone wherever it was hiding and took some screenshots. I’m not very good about having  my phone with me sometimes, but usually there’s a text from someone at work asking to pick up a shift…#waitressprobs

And I unlock my phone and this is my home screen. These are the apps that I use most. This is what I love about the iPhone (yes I still have the 4 and am on 3G, but i’m getting a new one soon!) is that you can personalize you apps to how you want it.

My next page are the apps that I use, but not all the time. I like this one because I can see my pictures from Orange Beach this summer. Miss those early beach mornings.

And because I love taking pictures, i’m showing you my camera roll. These are the latest pictures I have. Most of the time I delete my pictures after I put them on my computer because this darn 8G iPhone 4 doesn’t have a lot of space to hold pictures.

Then, of course i’ve got all my social media apps next to each other. You can follow me on Twitter @mollymiddleton

 

But i’m usually checking my Instagram when I get into my phone. Follow me! @mollymiddleton01

And the wonderful Pinterest. I like using it on my computer more than my phone because I can usually see more things at one time, however sometimes there are just days class is stretching out too long and you’ve got to get on Pinterest to make the time go faster.

Pandora! Obviously I listen to multiple kinds of music. Sometimes instead of my iPod I take my phone for Pandora on my runs. Sometimes I turn on Pandora to study. Sometimes I turn on Pandora for some noise. Sometimes I turn on Pandora to jam in the car. I love this FREE app.

Andddddd of course AtBat is on my phone. This is where I keep up with my Red Sox season after season to see News, Standings, Scores, etc. I love the Red Sox and I love baseball.

The Bible app is on my phone. Sometimes when i’m out and about or at school and need some motivation or inspiration i’ll open up my Bible app and look at my verse of the day or read along with the series i’m currently in. But most of the time i’m usually using my Kids’ Bible (of which I absolutely LOVE) because it’s tangible.

And then there’s safari. I don’t have the Facebook app, ’cause I don’t get on as much as I have in the past, but when I do I usually just use safari to do so. I also open up Mix and Match Mama’s recipes on safari if i’m at the store and needing to know what my grocery list is. And then of course checking my grades. That’s really all I use safari for, and it’s funny because this is what was actually on my safari app when I opened it. I didn’t have to change it one bit to take this picture.

Phones are very descriptive of people’s lives. I think you can tell a lot about someone by the contents of their phone. Hopefully you know me a little better, or you just got some pleasure out of “creeping” on my phone!

Leave a comment below if you would like to “creep” on another part of my life!! I’m open for all kinds of requests.

Oh, one more thing….
